Juice & Detox Cleanse Retreat
Living in a cities and eating processed food accumulates in the body, and causes compaction (DR Natalie Rose) deposits of undigested food that harden and increase weight and fatigue. Doing a cleanse for detoxification not only serves to loose unwanted pounds, but also to reset your digestive system to give it a chance to build back its natural internal balance – many cleanses are available for your particular situation. Besides pure juicing – WE offer Medical Medium (3:6:9) following all the guidelines ( not the exact protocol as in examples provided for lack of certain ingredients to be organic and fresh in Costa Rica) with the daily celery juice included, as well as other cleanses that may be more suitable to your situation, such as the liver cleanse which has some food besides juices and smoothies ( following guidelines). Dr Natalie Rose’s green juice cleanse gives a full digestive track detox. Gut health is so important and effects not only digestion, and even effects your daily mood. Having a healthy gut prevents any disease from setting in by a balance that is priming for a strong immune system. The Dr Rose Juice Cleanse is a very effective way to loose weight. *For those who have a hard time with Juicing we offer a smoothie fast with 4 smoothies per day that account for about 100 calorie intake.
Detox should be a part of everyone’s regimen. A Juice cleanse is the most effective fastest and sure way to clean up the physical system from the digestive track to the lymphatic system and even the brain and blood.. Using all fresh ingredients from Costa Rica you will clean out past made unhealthy food choices. Green Juice fasting is our specialty detox technique with the primary ingredient being organic fresh picked Kale/spinach/celery, with all types of vegetables, and some fruit to give you a blast of energy while loosing any excess or blockage that is slowing your metabolism down. OR you may opt for the low – glycemic version which is very effective with no fruit. Three days is the minimum to get any results from a detox cleanse, you can extend the juice cleanse to up to 10 days for a very effective cleanse.
Mentally prepare for a full reset with an energy healing session to start your stay! We can also offer the Master Cleanse formula which is essentially a water fast. Or try a coconut water cleanse ! We also offer the Heavy Metal detox – this is an add on price as the ingredients are imported in – just ask for a quote depending on the number of days. You can even do a raw meal for dinner while cleansing if you are into trying intermittent fasting.
WE can personalize your juice cleanse as we see what suits you best. You will be consuming juices about every 2 hours and we can also make them to go and give you mason jars and a little cooler to take to the beach 🙂 The cleanse gives you great results: you will first see your skin clear up, and then the bloated feelings go away, and you feel good in your own body as the days go on. After the cleanse we will offer a re-feeding and also introduction to natural bacteria which we do with our own coconut yogurt, fermented vegetables, and miso.
While 3 – 7 days works great for a detox – however, if your goal is weight loss then we suggest a longer program of 10 to 21 days. The green juice program has been the most effective in loosing weight, but if your liver is sluggish you will reach a plateau early on, so in that case the liver cleanse is done first (best is a 6 -9 day program, and then the juicing for a very effective weight loss program up to 10 days more. Longer programs can be accommodated by buying add on to package days or using the Ultimate Revival Package for 20 nights 🙂

The green juice cleanse is a program I do myself from 3 – 10 days, several times a year, and I love the results. It really works! The ingredients are the best that Costa Rica can offer in terms of fresh and organic ( or natural without preservatives ). First, you see it in your skin, and then you will feel incredible. Bloating goes away, and your energy level boosts. It is very important not to skip any juice times – we offer your juice every 2 hours fresh UP and you will drink and equal amount of spring water included… otherwise, you might have the desire to come off the fast. That is the only caution – you cannot get hungry, so we have a person in the kitchen to make fresh juices for you all the time. These are not stored – you get it fresh as can be each day.
We can take it very slow with you if it your first time, and you can come off the fast at any time, and have vegan or raw foods. For some people that is more than enough to detox – all depends on your starting condition. The starting condition is a measurement defined by Dr Natalie Rose detox MD, and we follow that guideline to see what you can handle from the get go. And let you know where you are after your program – measured in a level analysis for detoxing the body that is life style dependent.
Example Juice Cleanse Detox Program at the Waterfall Villas:
The juice cleanse can be done for 3 or 4 days in the 5 night program, and up to 6 days in the 7 night program. You can decide when you are ready and you can be served either vegan meals or raw vegan meals during the time you are off the juice fast. In the 3 night special you will go on Juices from the moment you arrive so a preparation is required. If you would like to extend your detox program we can also accommodate longer stays.
First, we will sit down and talk about your situation, measure the starting condition by a questionnaire to decide which cleanse we recommend for you (or you can tell us which you’d like to do if you have prior expeince), and understand your goals in the detox plan. You can also do this ahead of arrival by a video call. Then on arrival, we transition you with a clean organic raw vegan meal the first night. Although some people start juicing from arrival – and you can do that if you have done this before and by your request.
If you are ready to start the second day, the program below by Dr Natalie Rose can serve as an example of a pure juice detox. You will have various types of green drinks principal ingredient is fresh cut organic kale every 2 hours or less during the duration of the fast. If you are not ready, you can wait and have 3 light meals – especially if you have made allot of bad food choices lately, or if you are just not ready emotionally. This can be decided your first day, and revisited each day. It is always easier doing it with a friend who is committed to the detox or has experience.
The example below has 3 days of fasting, if you want to do more days of juices, then it is the same for the following 3 days. Last day either the 4th or 6th day in the evening we will transition you off the fast with fresh vegan soup, and the next day you will have the chia breakfast with fruits to fully cleanse out. If you are only fasting 3 days you will get either raw vegan (faster detox) or cooked vegan meals after your transition off to solids, guided by how you feel how you would like to continue with the detox process. We will be checking with you every day to customize the program for your needs.
If your goal is to lose weight we can also alter the juicing recipe to what you can handle to get maximum results – we can add some chili if you can handle that to up the metabolic rate. You may loose up to 8 lbs in one week. If you are under weight already, or trying not trying to lose weight, then we will take care with additional nutriments to maintain your weight. Although some weight loss usually naturally will occur as you detox.
If you are following a Medical Medium Cleanse then you will not be on juice 100%, but will also have light meals as per his publication, and of course, the daily celery juice, and everything included will be as close as possible to his books recipes given out fresh organic ingredients here in Costa Rica.
You can also do a Water Fast or a Master Cleanse, at the same price. these cleanses are not monitored and you take full responsibility for your results and ability to communicate to end the cleanse … In anycase, e will plan a re-feeding program for your last 24 hours before you leave.
*We recommend green tea or vegan chai during fasting days in the morning, and to not have coffee during your fasting days, but we will serve you fresh coffee if you ask for it.
